Yet another Sevagoth Endgame Build

Here is my Current [Sevagoth] Primary build with a pretty sizable investment of an Umbra Forma and Aura Forma, followed by 5 other Forma. Builds with less formal are definitely pretty strong, but this build is going for the optimal build and built on certain preferences of mine. For any [Sevagoth] build, 200% strength and 145% are a necessity.

Since [Steel Charge] doesn't apply to his shadow when it's placed on [Sevagoth], I opt to go for [Brief Respite] for additional survivability as he constantly expends energy. This adds an extra layer of protection to him and with how often you cast his Reap and Sow Combo. If you use an Augur mod, this bonus is increased further due to the Augur Passive. This mod is not a necessity and can be replaced by anything besides [Steel Charge]. I recommend [Growing Power], [Energy Siphon], or [Corrosive Projection]. One thing to note is that Ability efficiency reduces the effectiveness of [Brief Respite], But [Sevagoth] is so Energy hungry that it is still a very effective mod.

On [Sevagoth], It is a must to have 220% power at the least for a gloom slow of 75% and Damage vulnerability of at least 100% on his 1. The difference between a 60% and 75% slow is actually massive and makes gloom that much more powerful. The damage vulnerability is important as it is a 100% increase in damage taken and the way that it is calculated it is a much larger boost than expected.

Ability Range is good but too much will cause Gloom to become unsustainable and drain your energy immediately. If you want a Nuke [Sevagoth] build, Maxed range and then gloom replaced with [Nidus] Larva through Helminth is the best build. You can wholly focus on range and efficiency since the Nuke potential of Sevagoth comes from the 25% health explosions from Reap/Sow. Using Larva to clump up all enemies on screen, you use your reap sow combo and are guaranteed to kill any enemy regardless of the level if you have 5-6 enemies grouped up in a 4m radius Note that Ability range increases the hit range and trigger range of the Shadow on the Sow affected enemies, But the actual Nuke damage is always 4m

Duration needs to be at least 50% as the vulnerability from Sevagoth 1 should last at least 5 seconds, because the chances of one-shotting enemies go down with higher-level content, so having a longer buff of vulnerability allows slash procs and other debuffs to do double their damage over their duration. Other than that ability efficiency is a necessity as it allows for more Reap and Sow combos but also stops a lot of the [Power Drain] coming from Gloom.

For Arcane, Arcane [Guardian] is a NECESSITY with this build as it provides the armor he needs to survive while gloom is up, and due to my inclusion of [Streamline] you are unable to slot [Adaptation]. You can swap [Streamline] for [Adaptation], but The loss of maxed efficiency on gloom is super noticeable. If you don't slot [Adaptation] Arcane [Guardian] is needed as gloom lifesteal cant save you if you were one shot. The second slot is a preferential slot. Arcane Avenger is a bonus as it Increases crit chance when hit, but this slot is personal preference and can be swapped for any arcane you want. I use Arcane Avenger as it doesn't require headshots so you can use any weapon like explosives or wave-type guns with the crit bonus. Also, the crit chance bonus applies to all weapons, so you get a bonus on Primary, Pistols, and Melee. With gloom up getting hit is a pretty normal thing but you lifesteal every hit.
